Hi All A while ago i fitted a kph to mph converter. I do not drive my zed much but i think the gearchange pattern has changed since fitting the above! under full throttle the power light comes on as usual but the car changes to the next gear too soon ie: doe's not take full advantage of the full rev range under hard accelleration and change pattern is the same even if you take it easy or floor it. Also no kick down when you floor it unless you in o/d and that only drop's down to 3rd if you stay under 80mph any speed over that and you look pretty daft when you go to overtake something else.. :mad: .unless you turn o/d off then you just grin and go... :) ive don…

The aircon in my car (early -93 import) is not working (needs re-gas) and since the original gas was R12 it will either be R134a or R416 (or similar drop in) that will be used. As the aircon has been out of order for some time I am planning to get the drier tank changed as I believe that this should be done. Does anyone know if the drier tanks are the same in the US models or are the Jap part number different as the prices seem to be lower in the US? If anyone has the part number for an early (believe my car was produced in January) 1993 NA Import, please let me know.

Red H Reg Zed. Parked in Safeway's Carpark in Llanishen, Cardiff on Monday afternoon. Think it was a UK model.

Hi, Im new to all this, i've just sold my car and I really want a ZX. I dont know too much about their flaws and age differences unfortunately so buying the right one is rather difficult. :x: I know that im after a Twin turbo, but I dont know what age to go for, wether to go for a T-Top, UK or Jap spec, 2 seater or 2+2. Can anyone help me with this, are there any types to stay away from? Would really appreciate some help from people with the experience and knowledge. :bow: Thanks in advance Rob

just wondering who has done the clear rears themselves and what material they got for the best match to the nissan one ie where from my local Electric shop does a defuser but its more white than clear so no good thanks chris

as above really.

The Greddy boost controller there is a option to turn it off what would this do. Would the car run standerd boost or not run any at all or do something completly different?

Im looking to replace the stock sway bars with uprated items very soon. From what I have read these are make a very noticable difference to handling. The Guys on tt.net swear by them. Stillen, Suspension techniques and Whiteline offer them. Have anyone fitted the Whiteline kit, or know anything about them Stillens are 28mm Front and 21mm rear, and come highly recomended, but the Whiteline kit seems a bargain. £86 front - 27mm £61 Rear - 20mm http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/catalogue/appdata2.asp?manf_id=37&manfdesc=Nissan&code=WHIARB&app_id=68640&x=86&y=11 (stock is 27mm front, 21mm rear Hollow items?) Anybody know if…
